Finally the test results came today. They were as everyone expected - HOORAY! This result gives Keira the most favorable prognosis, and for this we are truly grateful. We proceed with surgery tomorrow, as planned. We are nervous about this. Even though we have discussed this with both the surgeon and the oncologist to the point that I'm sure both of them feel exhausted, we still don't know what to expect. We pray that God will guide the surgeon's hands to get all of the tumor, without injuring any nerves. This would be the best possible outcome from tomorrow.
Because of her surgery, Keira isn't allowed to eat after midnight, and will have to stop drinking after 9:30. We are to arrive at the hospital at 10:00 and surgery will be after that (starting at 11:30 or 1:30 depending on who you ask) We hope surgery won't be delayed too long, because Keira won't be able to eat or drink until after the surgery is over.
We have been asked to trust God in ways that we never thought possible over the past few months. Tomorrow we will be asked to do this again. Please continue to pray with us for Keira, that she will come through surgery without complications, and that tomorrow will bring her better results than we had hoped for... and one step closer to being cancer free.
Thank you,
Jason, Erin and Keira Grace
